George W. Bush Center: ‘America’s Story Is an Immigrant Story’
Breitbart ^ | 03/17/2019 | Neil Munro

Posted on 03/18/2019 7:24:46 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

here are no Americans in America and no history of America — just immigrants and their “story,” says a new video by former President George W. Bush’s Bush Center. “America’s story is an immigrant story,” says the video. “Now as before, American is a nation of immigrants,” says the video which refers to 280 million Americans — including many who voted for George W. Bush in 2000 — merely as an unnamed blob of “population,” “labor force,” “workers,” and even “natives.”

American would be weak without immigrants, the video argues, as it declares that “immigrants make America strong.”

Very disappointing of the Bush family to turn the way that they did. It was Donald Trump being elected President, that fully exposed the Bushes for the Globalists that they are.

‘America’s Story Is an Immigrant Story’

Yes it is an Immigrant Story. European, Christian Immigrants.

Culture counts. That is where the the real history is. This country, love it or hate it, is the child of millennia of European history.

Try to find an example of cultures and religions mixed and the population living happily ever after.

People do not accept the idea that their culture can be turned on and off like a switch or turned into a foreign value and belief system. They just don’t.

Uh, wake up, America was populated historically by immigrants, legal immigrants. I'm not playing any game, they are trying to legitimize illegal immigration. The only way your argument works is if you discount the fact that all Americans are either descendants of the original colonists, later legal immigrants or ...................you are a Native American Indian............who are just immigrants to the continent from a much earlier period.

Stop knee jerking.

We are currently outpacing the flood of immigration that led to the Immigration Act of 1924.

Even legal immigration is a problem.

One million legal immigrants a year, many from third world crap holes with no skills, 70% of these new immigrants voting democrat....all a recipe for disaster.

W was such a tard that he trusted the Pakis to cover our back. The Paki ISI let Bin Laden stroll down the backside of Tora Bora to safety and freedom. How could Bush have been so stupid! Bush was so friggin clueless about muslims and foreigners, it's painful. Even my hair hurts.

What a moron W is and that "demure" hypocrite chain smoking abortion cheerleader wife of his. If she were a couple of years younger she herself would be running her own Planned Parenthood "clinic".

The Bush family didn’t turn, they have always been behind the illegal alien inundation.
Their control of the GOP has for 30 years allowed 30 million people into the country against the will of the citizens.
We are being turned into North Mexico just as Daddy Bush dreamed.

He was speaking of America TODAY, not historically...

The population of America today is NOT an immigrant population...

You can twist what you want but there is no way to refute that the population of today is still due to immigration. I'll put that aside and simply state the my whole point in my original; post was that the media continues to lie about the current illegal immigration refusing to call it what is and my correction of the title that should have read that America was built on legal immigration and not their trying to white wash our illegal immigration crisis by calling all of it simply immigration. He is the one that went off some tangential twist of my original post.

That's it I'm done with those that can't follow a simple idea in simple plain English.

In the past, and to an extent even now legal immigrants are not to be a burden on this country, that is a part of the process.

Illegal aliens are a huge burden from the day they arrive.

The Bush family is today’s Benedict Arnold with their love of globalization, moozlums and illegal aliens. Pox on them all.

You truly think he strolled away from Tora Bora?

What about that odd and risky meeting in the desert by all of the al-Queda top dogs a few weeks later?

And the string of obscured, never clearly identifiable - but grainy garbled tapes of UBL that were occasionally utilized post December 2001.

And then we get a ‘UBL’ shot up short corpse dumped at sea.

ALL things that make us go hmmm.

I did not “twist” anything...What are you saying I “twisted”???

I simply stated that the majority of the population TODAY is not immigrants...You can go back as far as you want and yes, our ancestors at some point, were immigrants...

There is a huge difference in the words “was” and “is”....

Hell, my ancestry is Scots-Irish and Tsalagi (Ani Yun Wiya if you want to go back that far) but I was born in the United States and am NOT an immigrant...

Sorry Dubbie. You’re FOS. They didn’t have free stuff and welfare when my ancestors came here. America wasn’t “the Big Pinata” that it is now. Knock off the BS and read the History of America before you start shooting off your big mouth.

You are being an idiot.

I am not an immigrant! I am a natural born American. This is not a nation of immigrants. Most all of us may be decedents of immigrants BUT WE ARE NOT IMMIGRANTS. WAKE UP YOU FOOL YOU ARE BEING PLAYED.
